Sylviaincanada keep shouting. as I said we pay the same money so we should be entitled. Now if it was in the UK ie this film premier then I would nominate a friend. If it was a book .sheesh what is it going to cost them to post to another country ? No more than a persons subscription.

AnnC you have a good point there about the UK although I think GR have once or twice allowed it to be outside London, but at least you are in the UK and allowed to enter.

Come on GR allow us "overseas" a chance.

well there's no way I would consider travelling to London just to see a film which will come here anyway in time - people seem to think you drop off the edge of the world if you live outside London

Doesn't make sense.
GR has members in many countries in the world.



Why is this only open to UK members ?

almost NONE of the special offers from GR are available to overseas members.

The new free books is the only one I think ..................... I created blue bl***y murder about that one, as I have about every offer since they began this rewards thingy.

I think it was me dancing around in a paddy that made them say that they would be able to send the books overseas!

Because GR are to bloody tight and are probably scared that if an overseas member won, they might have to pay for airline ticket and hotel bill :-D :-D :-D

Anyway it will be doing the rounds at the cinema more or less straight after.

If I won I would either come over myself or nominate a friend.
I do think tho´that us non UK members who pay the same subscription should be entitled to enter the draw also.
